You get to visit other parts of the world (or your home country) and learn about how people live. You get to meet new people and make new friends. You get to try new foods. You might get to learn a new language. And you\u2019ve got your parents with you to help out if you get nervous or shy.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One of the best things about travelling on an <a href=\"\/family\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpil=\"url\">Intrepid Family holiday<\/a> is that, along with hanging out with other families in your group, you also get around with a <a href=\"\/about\/meet-intrepid-leaders\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">local leader<\/a> \u2013 an expert who knows just about everything about their country, who can help you meet the locals, buy a bus ticket, or pick the yummiest thing on the menu (that isn\u2019t hot chips!).<\/p>\n<p>You also get to do lots of cool activities that might be harder to organise if you were just travelling with your parents.

Equally cool is the chance to meet with a local musician, who\u2019ll show you how to make \u2013 and play \u2013 the zampona, a traditional Peruvian panpipe. Also known as sikus, zamponas are made using bamboo shoots or cane, and can be heard in traditional music all across the Andes.
